Cryogenic electron microscopy has been used to determine the detailed structure of an intermediate state called a “D-loop” that forms when strands of DNA are exchanged during homologous recombination.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the PaCIFiC launch, and for the strong interest from researchers across Cambridge.

This milestone reflects a shared vision to expand cryo-imaging across disciplines.
